I…

uhhh…

Do I need to reach out to #Gizmodo to let them know that #UCRiverside has been part of the University of *California* system since at least 1954 (maybe 1907, depending on how you count) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_California,_Riverside

and that "University of Colorado, Riverside" does not exist? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Colorado

I totally get how the confusion happens… but… journalistically? Ouch.

A #terrestrialplanet hovering between #Mars and #Jupiter would be able to push #Earth out of the #solarsystem and wipe out #life on this planet, according to a #UCRiverside #experiment.

This here Fediverse has my mind thinking about conjunctural analyses. So here's my narrative careen, with hastags.

I went to #UCRiverside for a BA & MA in English. There my fellow students & instructors showed me how a #CulturalStudies influenced rhet-comp #pedagogy can be liberatory (+ why it's necessary but insufficient).

From there, I went to a VCS program in Upstate NY. After pursuing more #SoundStudies & #CriticalTheory I received an MA (implied cluster of footnotes here), adjuncted a bit, then went on to #librarianship.

From 2015 to 2022 I was a #CommunityCollege #librarian, mostly focused on instruction with critical #InfoLit & more general #CritLib approaches, along with #OpenAccess & #OER. I also started a part-time PhD program in English & the Teaching of English.

Now I'm an #InstructionalDesigner at ISU. I'm trying to weave in #a11y & #MediaStudies / systems thinking, plus working on my diss project on informatics/info systems in post-1945 US novels & media.

Emerging from the shadows of my lab’s account @Socalab to get my own account. Some #academic #introduction

I am an Associate Professor at #ucriverside, #PollittEndowedChair and #Academicdirector of the #MellonMaysUndergraduateFellowship #MMUF program at #UCR. My work deals with the #firstgeneration that is born after a political, social or economic crisis: how do they make sense of the new environment and which #culturalobjects they create. I have approached that from #linguistics, #literature and #history while examining #California, #Mexico and #Asturias.

Big fan of #socialmediaresearch, #philologist at heart and #President of @asturianstudies@hcommons.social
